ShardTracker Classic

ShardTracker Classic is a WoW 2.0 compatible version of ShardTracker. STC provides convienient buttons for tracking shards, creating and using stones, and summoning pets and mounts. For a more feature rich Warlock UI, you may wish to try ShardTracker 3G. Please note that ShardTracker 3G and ShardTracker Classic should never be active on the same character at the same time.

Well, first off the colors/fonts have already been changed in 1.05+. There are no plans to change the functionality of the buttons at this time. I know its new, but as with all new things it takes some getting used to. I did take great care to ensure that the buttons had a certain "flow" to them, making more commonly used spells require easier key combinations. Casting two spells with a single button click is not possible in WoW 2.0, so Fel Domination casting is not allowed. You just have to click both buttons, ShardAce is not my project so I can't speak for it.

First thanks for trying to bring this classic mod to the new UI but I do have some feedback.

I like the ability to drag buttons around to position them. Definitely a bonus over shardace currently.

1) Get rid of the funky colors. Go with a more standard gold/bronze please.

2) don't try and overload the shard button with so many options. Having a left click right click and hover all on the same thing doesn't really work out well. I didn't play with it for long but found myself frequently having to play with it to get the over to close when I had just intended to mount and it poped up too fast.

3) Summoning players should show up under same menu as summoning pets. It really doesn't need it's own quick access and it's more consistant with the "classic" mod.

4) I understand some things may have to change so putting mount on right click for soul stone might not happen but it tries to summon now so should be able to. If you can move right click to mount here you can make Armor left click and summon menu right click.

5) One feature that didn't seem to be present and is missing in shardace also is Alt click a minon to Fel domnion summon them.

Release 1.05 has the cooldown timers I know you have all been waiting for. Right now, the stone timers require a stone be present in your pack before the timer will show itself. This isn't a big deal for healthstone, and makes sense for spellstone but unfortunately the soulstone will not keep time without the stone available. Obviously I want to further develop this but I wanted you guys to have access to some kind of timers in the mean time.

I have had complaints about the button images. I may change them from purple to a color that more blends in with the UI. I want to attempt to keep the red & yellow however as those are supposed to stand out.

2. The buttons become movable when the configuration dialog opens and become locked when it closes (the configuration dialog can be moved as well if it is in your way). This is still a bit buggy as sometimes the buttons want to cast spells while trying to move them.

3. DO NOT OPEN THE CONFIG DIALOG IN COMBAT OR ENTER COMBAT WHILE IT IS OPEN. There is no error checking right now and I can not guarantee what might happen.

I updated the description with the new usage information. The config dialog can be access through Shift-Clicking the shard button or typing any of the 3 slash commands.

Originally posted by KnThrak Call me utterly stupid - but do I recognize correct that it shows a separate Firestone button, but hides the other additional buttons of the newest ShardTracker 3G release?

The Firestone button was always a part of the classic shardtracker style, but it was combined with the spellstone button (left click for spellstone, right click for firestone). Due to WoW 2.0 secure functions, the buttons had to be seperated because I could no longer use one click to Create if it doesnt exist and Equip if it does exist. That type of auto-decision making was removed in WoW 2.0. This is also why the demon menu and steed summoning are now on the shard button instead of the healthstone button and the soulstone button as they used to be. ShardTracker Classic is designed to be a minimalist approach. It doesn't have any of the new buttons from ST3G. It does however have two new functions not in previous ST versions, right clicking the shard button will cast your highest level armor spell and shift-clicking the healthstone button will cast ritual of souls (in TBC that is).
